When I was a very young girl; I kept having this recurring dream…or nightmare.    It was over and over again.  At the time, I had never been to church.  This was it:

People were very poor.  There wasn’t much to eat.   I had no family.  The government was in control.  It was a barbarian society; very frightening.  It seems that everyone was being apprehended….we were taken as prisoners.  They only wanted to know one thing:

 

“Would I take the mark of the beast.”  I admit that I never saw it but if I said “No,” I would be put to death.

Everytime, I would ultimately say:  “Yes.”  After all, I was a kid…I did not want to die even though life around m,e was pure hell!

I dreamed this dream 100 times or more.  At some point I did begin to go to church.   Then, I began to feel guilty.   I knew I wasn’t supposed to give in.   But…I was really in training.   You see, there would come many days when I would be tempted to do the unrightepus thing or deed…and I would say:  “No.”

There would come a day when I would understand faith and the Book of Revelations….and I know that I would never take the mark of the beast; God has given me an out; to be “caught up: in the rapture before the days of tribulation.

 

YOU SEE THAT DREAM WAS NO COINCIDENCE…IT WASN’T TOO MUCH PIZZA OR ICE CREAM; IT WAS TRAINING FOR LATER UNDERSTANDING.  THAT DREAM DREW ME TO SEARCH FOR THE ANSWER.  I KEPT THINKING THERE HAS TO BE A BETTER WAY…AND THERE WAS!!!

 

If you have no knowledge of the rapture…read your bible …do some research…don’t be “Left Behind.”

1 John 5:11-13 And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.

John 3:17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.

John 17:3 And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.
